We will discuss several techniques for obtaining point estimates and confidence intervals for steady-state performance measures. Let (X(t): t≥ 0) be a GSMP with (discrete) state space S that represents the underlying stochastic process of a simulation. Fix a real-valued function f defined on S and set Y(t) = f(X(t)) for t ≥ 0. There are several possible ways to define steady-state performance m...

Carey, DG, Tofte, C, Pliego, GJ, and Raymond, RL. Transferability of running and cycling training zones in triathletes: implications for steady-state exercise. J Strength Cond Res 23(1): 251–258, 2009—The primary objective of this study was to determine whether physiological measurements obtained from one mode of testing and training could be applied to another mode, as in prescribing heart rat...

In this paper a new approach for the steady state Kalman Filter implementation is proposed. The method is faster than the classical one; this is very important due to the fact that, in most real-time applications, it is essential to obtain the estimate in the shortest possible time.

The gas flow estimation is crucial for the proper operation and monitoring of turbocharged (TC) engines with a torque structured engine control unit (ECU). This paper presents mean value models developed for modeling gas flow over the compressor, the turbine and the wastegate (WG) in a TC gasoline engine not equipped with a hot film air-mass flow meter (HFM). The turbine flow ...

Response of a transversely isotropic 3-D half-space subjected to a surface time-harmonic excitation is presented in analytical form. The derivation of the fundamental solutions expressed in terms of displacements is based on the prefect series of displacement potential functions that have been obtained in the companion paper by the authors. First the governing equations are uncoupled in the cyl...

 An equation-oriented approach was developed for steady state flowsheeting of a commercial methanol plant. The loop consists of fixed bed reactor, flash separator, preheater, coolers, and compressor. For steady sate flowsheeting of the plant mathematical model of reactor and other units are needed. Reactor used in loop is a Lurgi type and its configuration is rather complex. Previously reactor ...

this paper presents a detailed small-signal and transient analysis of a full bridge pwm dc-dc converter designed for high voltage, high power applications using an average model. the derived model is implemented in a typical system and used to produce the small-signal and transient characteristics of the converter. results obtained in the analysis of the high voltage and high power design examp...
